The Programmatic National Coalition (Gaullican: Coalition Nationale Programmatique) or commonly abbreviated CONAPRO was a centre to right wing electoral coalition in Puramape, created in 1978 and dissolved in 2005. It was the largest political force in the Senate during most of its existence.
It was formed in 1978 by initiative of the former premier and leader of the UCR, Louis Geiger Maitre, in an effort to consolidate the domination of Radicalism in Puramape as well as preventing a possible government from the recently founded left coalition Front for People's Participation. Rather than a conventional coalition, CONAPRO operated as an independent political organism of coordination between the two main parties of Puramape, UCR and PDIN, with the support of the USC; the three parties run on general elections independently, even though during its years of existence, the coalition was able to conform minimal political platforms. CONAPRO was crucial in the construction of a two-party system and a large public sector, it has also been credited for the political stability of Puramape between the 1960s and 1980s, although this consideration is arguable.
Since its creation until 2000, political parties that were part of CONAPRO achieved Senatorial majorities in every general election. Although the radicalism got a clear dominance over the coalition's structure, one of the premiers, Nicolas Bertillon-Lavaud (1995-2000) came from the Party of National Integration. The three parties counted with strong structures of dominance over the voters, with the UCR being predominantly popular in urban centres and middle classes, the PDIN being closer to rural federations and societies and the minor partner USC counting with a strong presence in the Solarian Catholic education. The CONAPRO was dissolved in 2005, after the PDIN and USC retired from the La Rue government amid the 2005 financial crisis.
